President Obama and other statists in Washington want a big class-warfare tax hike . They claim the additional revenue is necessary to reduce red ink. But their ideological crusade is based on some blatant distortions. In other words, the Obama tax hike will make government bigger, even if some naively support the tax hike because they want smaller deficits.

Washington has a spending problem. Tax cuts don't increase deficits anymore than tax increases decrease deficits. Deficits are decreased by spending less. I wonder how many of the folks who quote this nonsense have ever budgeted their own money.

No President of the United States can create either a budget deficit or a budget surplus. All spending bills originate in the House of Representatives and all taxes are voted into law by Congress. This means Bill Clinton did not balance the budget, the Republicans did.

Democrats controlled both houses of Congress before Barack Obama became president. The deficit he inherited was created by the Congressional Democrats, including Senator Barack Obama, who did absolutely nothing to oppose the runaway spending. He was one of the biggest of the big spenders.

Well, well, well.....since the Democrats have controlled the purse strings of congress since 2006, it would appear that Obama is merely continuing the slow destruction of our economy that was started by the democrat's. Why is it they can't take the blame for things when they go badly as fast as they take the credit "if" things go better? Oh, and by the way, unemployment was under 7% near the end of the Bush administration, the deficit was actually only about $400 billion, and the government wasn't in the car business!

Thanks'! Somebody has to point to the truth, and anybody who has been around for over 40 years knows this to be true. Even if they moderately paid attention to Washington, and I am unique like this. I was a government and civics class nerd! Along with a bit more on my personal resumé.

This is how I have lived!

High tax increase will worse more and will crash our economic. Let start a lower middle class then help economic back up.

November 25th past gone; the date of human right but some places was not right for the human. It still had not protected women well. And some places still had discrimination. We need to fight for the human rights immediately and also protect women. Everyone must equality and freedom likely freedom speech. For the most of the Asian people never had freedom speech in the workplace or the public, special is a Vietnamese. Please put hand together, we fight for freedom for ever.
